Another Nineteen: Investigating Legitimate 9/11 SuspectsAn interview at Global Research TV by James Corbett with chemist, author, and 9/11 investigator Kevin Ryan about his new book. Why were these questions that are obvious to any crime investigation not pursued? Who had means, motive, and opportunity to pull off such an operation that included standing down US forces, making sure that targets were hit, pulling buildings with demolition explosives, and covering up evidence after the crime? Who benefited to what degree? Why were those who failed to defend the USA on that day not fired, demoted, or prosecuted? Why were they all instead rewarded with promotions and given more power and money? Kevin Ryan has another 19 suspects for us to consider.

Kevin Ryan Bio at The Journal For 9/11 Studies - Kevin Ryan earned a
B.S. in Chemistry from Indiana University and has worked as a
chemistry laboratory manager for many years. As a manager at
Underwriters Laboratories (UL) he began, in 2003, to question the
World Trade Center investigation being conducted by UL and the U.S.
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Ryan lost his
position at UL for making his questions public and, in the summer of
2006, joined the new journal as co-editor.
Mr. Ryan has
authored or co-authored many articles on 9/11 and has also
contributed to several books on the subject. He was a founding member
of the 9/11 Working Group of Bloomington and Scholars for 9/11 Truth
& Justice. From 2009 to 2011, he volunteered his time as a board
director at Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth. His book
Another Nineteen: Investigating Legitimate 9/11 Suspects was released
in 2013.

Truth Troubadour Blog: Science Radio Show Host Michio Kaku Gave Michael S...:On July
16, 2013 on KPFA, Michio Kaku , "Professor of Theoretical
Physics" and host of a long-standing radio show called
"Exploration". Science Radio Show Host Michio Kaku
Gave Michael Shermer An Unskeptical Interview - Dr Kaku lets Dr
Shermer ridicule Dr Steven Jones without even mentioning a single
detail of his work or his research on samples of WTC dust. It is
enough that he was "suspended" by his university. What does
our host do to challenge Shermer? Kaku has no informed questions for
Shermer to debunk! Is not a "debunking" supposed to
actually take on the points that the other scientist or author
actually makes? Does Kaku not owe Dr Steven Jones an opportunity to
discuss his scientific "Hypothesis" on the show which
allowed him to be ridiculed? Could he have Richard Gage of Architects
and Engineers for 9/11 Truth on a special show as
well? http://truthtroubadour.blogspot.com/2013/07/science-radio-show-host-michio-kaku.html
On July 16, 2013 on KPFA, Michio Kaku, "Professor of Theoretical
Physics" and host of a long-standing radio show called
"Exploration", gave a completely unscientific and
unskeptical interview platform to Michael Shermer to discuss "The
Borders of Science - Why People Believe Strange Things". And
on July 19, 2013 RT Interview with Michio Kaku by Oksana Boyko, he really lost his "cool" when he tried to
intellectually bully the young host. (July 19 Argument linked here and linked at bottom in the paragraph in yellow text added on 7-21-13.)
On July 16 Dr. Shermer is introduced as the "dean of debunkers", founder of The Skeptical Society, and a regular writer for Scientific American. Yet
Shermer's technique is to include in that wierdo grab-bag of “strange
beliefs” held by “otherwise smart people” a grab-bag of odd notions but not his own preposterous and completely
unskeptical perspective on the official story of 9/11. Kaku allows
Shermer to employ the anti-intellectual technique of ridicule in lieu
of a rational analysis. In fact, Kaku joins in the non-science
rudeness toward people not there to defend themselves, especially
physicist Dr Steven Jones.
Physicist
Dr. Steven Jones describes explosive evidence that was found in WTC
dust samples at the historic 2010 "Architects &
Engineers for 9/11 Truth" San Francisco press conference
while Erik Lawyer of "Firefighters for 9/11 Truth" and
prolific author Dr. David Ray Griffin wait in the wings.
The
long standing science show on NPR, all of the Pacifica radio
stations, and syndicated to hundreds of other stations, has been
strangely silent over these many years since 2001 on the scientific and forensic
evidence of the events of 9/11/01. Like the Philip Zelikow-led 9/11
Commission Report, omissions and distortions abound in this rare and
shamefully superficial “9/11 science” moment on Mister Kaku's
show. No mention of Building 7 even as Kaku joins Shermer in the
preposterous notion that World Trade Center buildings #1 and #2
disintegrated due to fuel and office fires and that no demolitions
were involved. No discussion of the rate of fall in 10 seconds, nor
any reference to the 100 plus year history of steel frame buidings.
After
explaining "the skeptics movement", for which Shermer
thinks himself the self-appointed leader of, the subjects go from
9/11, to talking with dead people, to creationist denial of Darwin,
to superstitions, to UFO's, and so on in the mix of discrediting by
association... Shermer gets to 9/11 at 11:45 in the hour long show
and that segment goes to 19:20. Shermer acts shocked that he got
"hundreds of letters from readers of Scientific American"
angry with his debunking of 9/11”.

Dr
Kaku lets Dr Shermer ridicule Dr
Steven Jones
without even mentioning a single detail of his work or his research
on samples of WTC dust. It is enough that he was "suspended"
by his university. What does our host do to challenge Shermer? Kaku
has no informed questions for Shermer to debunk! Is not a "debunking"
supposed to actually take on the points that the other scientist or
author actually makes?

Hypothesis - 47 minutes film by Brett Smith on Dr Steven Jones
Of
course, Shermer does not address WTC Building 7 on the Kaku show, which was not hit by a plane and disintegrated in about 7 seconds. He claims that fires did not have to melt the tower buildings to make them collapse in about 10 seconds flat.
Our popular “science guy”, Mr. Kaku, offers, without accreditation, that the architects designed the buildings to fall right into
themselves. Should we not expect a citation for such a claim on a
nominally unbiased scientific show? The only "residue"
problem for Shermer is not what's found in the dust by Dr. Steven
Jones and the international team which published a for-peer review
report in
The Open Chemical Physics Journal in 2009, but
rather the residue of "unexplained anomalies". Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth article: “Advanced Pyrotechnic of Explosive Material Discovered in WTC Dust" by Gregg Roberts and Andrea Dreger.

"9/11 Explosive Evidence: Experts Speak Out"
Shermer
begs the question in lieu of scientific evidence and common sense! He
asks, why not just take bin Laden's word for it, after all, says
Shermer, he claimed to have done it. Yet bin Laden denied his involvement, which was reported on CNN on 9-16-01. A fake video with a fatter African featured bin Laden was "found" in Afghanistan after the US invasion, which is largely discredited. But Shermer makes no attempt to document what he says as a real scientist or skeptic would do.
From the CNN Memory Hole "Osama Bin Laden Releases Statement Denying Responsibility for 9/11 Attacks"
Where is the skepticism of these
official histories? Shermer says that Bush was too "incompetent"
to pull off 9/11. He reveals that he has not really ever studied the
subject or that he has a hidden agenda. See "Joshua
Blakeney and Anthony J. Hall Investigate Michael Shermer's Academic
Credentials
- Oct
17, 2010 (11:30) Pretender
or Professor? Joshua Blakeney and Anthony J. Hall Investigate Michael
Shermer's Academic Credentials."
Shouldn't
this trashing by ridicule and specious science actually be seen as an
opportunity for the international 9/11 truth movement? After all,
Kaku has put his scientific reputation on the line by hosting Shermer
in a completely uncritical and endorsing manner. After all, Kaku has rather avoided the subject for nearly 12 years... So what is he trying to
do now? How about some public discussion of an appropriate response
to Kaku from the intellectual leadership of the 9/11 Truth movement
in numerous countries at once? Does Kaku not owe Dr Steven Jones an
opportunity to discuss his scientific "Hypothesis" on the
show which allowed him to be ridiculed? He should have Richard Gage of
Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth on a special show as well.
Contact
for Michio Kaku listed at KPFA web page for his show: mkaku@aol.com
Our “science guy”, Michio Kaku has won wide respect for his straight talk about the dangers of nuclear power and weapons. Take note of this: In the last 3 minutes of this one hour show, Kaku offers an editorial cover for himself. He talks about how everyone thought that reports of CIA mind control experiments were just crazy “conspiracy theories”. He concludes that in the wake of the revelations that came out during the Watergate era about the MK Ultra Mind Control program, it turns out that “sometimes the conspiracy theorists are right”.
On July 19 Kaku really lost his "cool" when he tried to
intellectually bully RT Interviewer Oksana Boyco. In“Science of Democracy”, featuring an interview by Oksana Boyko
with Science populizer Dr Michio Kaku 7-19-13 RT Worlds Apart Channel
(29:14) Kaku
is quite combative with Oksana. At 9:25 Kaku becomes quite rude and
belligerent with the host at this point. He asks, “Are you a
'conspiracy theorist'?”. And he demands that she answer his
question, “Who was behind 9/11?” He repeats it five times in
rapid succession! You can hear him interrupt her every time she tries
to answer. He is clearly trying to use the full weight of his
celebrity “Science Guy” status to intimidate the young and articulate Russian journalist, Oksana Boyco.

site by Daniel Noel called "9/11 Baby Step" posted in the comment
section at KPFA for this particular show with Michael Shermer the
unskeptical “skeptic” endorsing the pseudo-science of NIST and
the 9/11 Commission Report based on Guantanamo torture testimony and
Philip Zelikow creative myth writing.
Recommend
reading would be Jim Hoffman's article addressing Michael
Shermer's history of attack pieces against 9/11 Truth titled
“Scientific
American's Dishonest Attack On 911Research” 7-13-05 by Jim Hoffman:
“Shermer's attack
could hardly be more hypocritical. He pays lip service to the kind of
cumulative argument known as inference to the best explanation, which
requires the consideration of all the relevant evidence. But he
avoids the vast bodies of evidence cited by skeptics like David Ray
Griffin, and fails to correctly state even a single one of their
arguments. Instead, Shermer embeds mentions of the works of serious
skeptics within a tapestry of ludicrous ideas so as to discredit them
through guilt-by-association. This approach has nothing to do with
science and everything to do with sophistry...
Shermer's column exhibits many of the same propaganda techniques as
the ambitious feature article in the March (2005) issue of Popular
Mechanics by Benjamin Chertoff, for which Shermer professes
admiration... Shermer uses an array of deceptive methods to persuade
the reader that challenges to the official story of the 9/11 attack
are worthy only of ridicule and should not be scrutinized. His
primary technique is to use hoaxes and unscientific ideas - long
promoted on the web and in videos - to bracket the valid ideas that
he seeks to shield the reader from. That Shermer went to such great
lengths to thoroughly misrepresent the painstaking, scientific,
evidence-based work of 911Research is a testament to the site's
success."http://www.911research.wtc7.net/essays/sciam/index.html
Abby Martin on RT Breaking the Set! 7-12-13: "Abby Martin takes a closer look at the death of award winning journalist Michael Hastings, featuring interviews with Michael's close friend, Joe Biggs, who suspects his death was not an accident, and Kimberly Dvorak, an investigative journalist who has been conducting an investigation into the anomalies despite stonewalling from the LAPD."
This
episode of “Brainwash Update” is one of the best and hardest-hitting
analyses ever delivered by Abby Martin! And they are all good! For this
episode, Martin's "Breaking the Set" YouTube Channel states: "Abby Martin calls out Bill
Maher, host of HBO's 'Real Time', for his evolution from being a
controversial commentator to being an arrogant lackey for the
democratic party, citing his rampant Islamophobia, support for
drones, and defense of the NSA's wiretapping program."
Abby's first clip is one from a long ago “Politically Incorrect” show in which Maher claimed that "we" (USA) were the cowards for lobbing missiles in from a safe distance of our adversaries, for which he was fired by ABC. Abby says that Maher has made a complete reversal of positions to “suck up to his corporate masters”, and she goes on a rapid roll-out of evidence to back up what she says.
In
fact, Maher makes an extremely insensitive and racist joke about
Muslims in general in an interview with CIA-trained CNN interviewer
Cooper Anderson. Abby plays the clip. Anderson's wikipedia page
states, “During college, Cooper spent two summers as an intern at
the Central Intelligence Agency. Although he has no formal
journalistic education, he opted to pursue a career in journalism
rather than stay with the agency after school.” Instead of showing shock and disgust at this demonizing remark, Anderson smiles and lets it stand uncontested, thus encouraging millions of viewers to join in the hatred for billions of fellow human beings. If either Maher or Anderson feared a "real existential threat" from "terrorism" or "Muslims", would they talk like that about Muslims in general? As Abby Martin says, "statistically you are less likely to die of bee sting than a terrorist attack."
She takes Maher to task for a recent Huffington Post op-ed article by Maher saying that "600 thousand Palestinians (expelled from their country) should have been mature, enough to move on, the way the Jews did". Abby mocks that one saying, "Yeah, dude, Palestinians just need to grow up! They need to just waltz out of that open air prison and move on with their lives, right? But if that's not offensive enough, just wait! Because in addition to Occupation, Maher supports Stazi-like sureillance too! Just recently on his show he said, "I'm ok with spying now that
Obama is in office.” She reams him again saying, "Grow up, man! Your complete trust in Democrats is not going to matter when the same spying program is adopted by the next Republican President. Although that does not matter to people like Bill Maher because his purpose, like that of John Stewart or Steven Colbert, is to be lackey for the Democratic Party."
Next she plays a clip of Maher presenting "a giant cartoon check" to the Obama Super PAC (Political Action Committee) fund for one million dollars "while fear-mongering that there is no other choice than to support a war criminal. And any time there's a real change amassing, Maher arrogantly rejects it." We are reminded by Abby of Maher's attempts at character assassination on the millions of citizen volunteers in the American grassroots movement demanding another “New Deal” between the 99% and the 1%, a movement. She points out that Maher once referring to the Occupy Wall Street movement as 'a
bunch of douchebags who think throwing a chair through a Starbucks
window is going to bring on the revolution'. Abby tells Bill Maher point blank what will bring on the revolution: "Yeah Bill, cuz you know what IS going to bring on the Revolution is giving millions of dollars to perpetuate endless war, the erosion of rights, and a climate of fear and hatred for one another." The Occupy Wall Street movement is better known for occupying public spaces, sharing food, having teach-ins, and holding open public assemblies of direct democratic participation than for 'throwing chairs' even when attacked by militarized police forces in nationally coordinated simultaneous attacks in numerous cities using phone conferences with the "Homeland Security", the FBI, and mostly Democratic Party big city mayors!
Abby Martin concludes her Maher skewering with a final sledge-hammer blow that is reminiscent of the opening to her "Breaking the Set" TV show where she smashes a TV with a sledge-hammer while CNN's Wolf Blitzer is yapping propaganda and nonsense. Abby skewers Bill Maher with logic, principles, and humor. Political humor at its best because she exposes how one man's journey led him to financial success in a moral wasteland! "How far you've come, Bill! From the days of actually
speaking controversial truths to becoming nothing more than an
Establishment Puppet! Keeping the masses laughing and superficially
'informed', right? Hey! Whatever
keeps the country divided and the money flowing.”
Truth Troubadour leaves you with a humorous and appropriate song to cap off your delightful Abby Martin skewering of Bill Maher experience. Today I chose "LOVE ME I'M A LIBERAL 2011" to dedicate to Mister Maher and his ilk. It's a free song at Sound Cloud/BroadsideBalladeer. Truth Troubadour's version for our times is an update by Vic Sadot
of the Phil Ochs 1966 classic Love Me I'm A Liberal. Vic Sadot's 2011 version of "Love Me I'm A Liberal" was released on Sept 11, 2011 under
license on the 16 song CD titled "9/11 Truth & JusticeSongs", which remains available on CD Baby! Enjoy the song! And
be strong in struggle!
Daisy
Bram and Jayme Walsh were living their California Dream. They had
moved from Iowa to a rural mountain town in northern California where
they began to home-birth and raise three children, to grow their own food and
medical marijuana, and to integrate themselves into the mostly
farming community where Daisy works as a midwife. Then came police raids into their home to seize
their children, to put the husband in prison, with Daisy, the mother of three, currently out on bail and speaking out in their defense. Now the three children, Zeus, Thor,
and Invictus are under the control and supervision of the Child
Protective Services. The seizure of her car has left the young and vibrant mother of three stranded in a rural
community with no transportation while facing charges of child endangerment. Fortunately, Daisy has a
good lawyer namedMichael Levinsonworking pro-bono on her behalf. There is also a growing community of support around this family's case and a legal defense fund has been established. SeeGreenAid - Daisy Bram Legal Defense Fund. This is her heart-breaking
story. Be sure to watch the video at bottom to hear her tell her
story in her own words.
Parents,
Pot, and Prohibition: California CPS Stole Daisy Bram's Children
Because She Was Legally Growing Medical Marijuana 5-16-13 in
OilFreeFun.com
- "Daisy Bram has had her three young children taken from her, her
husband locked up, and even her vehicle confiscated for growing
marijuana "legally" in Northern California. This is the
human cost of the for-profit "war on drugs", the for-profit
prisons, the for-profit police state, and for-profit pharmaceutical
lobbyists screwing up sane governance. Hopefully this heart-wrenching
story turns the tide away from institutional insanity and towards
freedom of medical choice."
From Reason.com: "In 2011, Daisy Bram and Jayme Walsh lived with their two small children, Thor and Zeus, in Butte County, California. Like so many other people in northern California, Bram and Walsh had medical marijuana recommendations and a small cannabis garden in their back yard. In September, their home was raided by Butte County sheriffs. Bram and Walsh were charged with cultivation of marijuana, possession with intent to sell, and child endangerment. Thor and Zeus were taken by Child Protective Services and placed in foster care for four months. A year later, Bram gave birth to their third son, Invictus. With their Butte County cases still unresolved, Bram and Walsh decided to move their family to neighboring Tehama County. In January of 2013, Tehama County sheriffs raided Bram and Walsh's new home. This time they found a cannabis garden in a locked room off the back of the house. Child Protective Services once again seized Bram and Walsh's children and placed them in foster care, where they remain to this day. On January 30, Tehama County officers seized Bram's car. Walsh is currently in jail with bail set at one million dollars. Bram is out on bail awaiting future court dates. "There is nothing worse that someone can be accused of than doing something to harm their own children. If someone from the government is going to come after someone and make that accusation, they better have the ammunition ready to go," said Michael Levinsohn, Daisy Bram's attorney."

of February 2013, Daisy Bram's children, all of whom are younger than
three, have been removed from their mother's care and placed in the
foster care system by Tehama County, CA authorities. She is in URGENT
NEED of a family law attorney, child custody expert, advocate, or
community leader near Tehama County to assist in regaining custody of
her children (contact The Human Solution). Supporters are encouraged
to donate to Daisy's legal defense fund through Green Aid. (Active
links at the article site!) Daisy Bram and Jayme Walsh no longer
enjoy a quiet life off the grid in rural northern California with
their three children, living by the motto "Live simply so others
can simply live." Like other residents of remote Concow, CA
(near Oroville in unincorporated Butte County), Daisy and Jayme
produced their own food and traded the bounty of their organic garden
with other locals. Daisy Bram, a midwife who delivered her two
youngest children at home, delivered another mother's baby into this
world in January 2012, but her own three babies no longer live in her
healthy, loving home. The children have been medicated against
Daisy's will while in foster care and her newborn was switched to a
formula diet in direct opposition to all of Daisy's natural spiritual
motherhood ideals and practices.” Read more at:
Truth Troubadour Blog: Questions about the Death and Dumping at Sea of Os...: Questions remain unanswered about the execution of former CIA operative Osama bin Laden (aka Tim Osman) in May 2011 that was reported by President Obama. What about numerous previous reports of bin Laden's death due to kidney failure? Without documentation are people simply expected to believe what they are told as if their are no hidden agendas and apparent consequences. Various information links offered! KPFA's Guns & Butter show, Editor & Publisher, No Lies Radio, David Ray Griffin, Global Research, Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth, Open Chemical Physics Journal, Kevin Ryan, N CA 9/11 Truth Alliance, 9/11truth.org, etc.
Osama bin Laden: Dead or Alive? If he is dead, when did he die?
Was he really the "mastermind of 9/11", or not?
How can we know the truth?
Editor's Note #1 of 3 posted 5-18-15: This Truth Troubadour blog is getting a resurgence in reads in the wake of the famous journalist Seymour Hersh's charges that the alleged Obama extra-judicial execution of Osama bin Laden story was "One Big Lie". Hersh's story is also "One Big Lie" and appears to be meant to enforce the premise that Osama bin Laden had not died earlier as widely reported and documented by David Ray Griffin. Note that Hersh's "One More Big Lie" is far more gruesome than the original one that Obama told the world about dumping the body at sea "in accordance with Muslim practice". Hersh claims that his anonymous sources told him that the bin Laden body was disposed of by dropping parts of it out of a helicopter as the Navy Seals flew their helicopter over Pakistan. WTF!!!
One thing we know is that Osama bin Laden was a CIA asset used to recruit Muslim fundamentalists to fight the Russians in Afghanistan. What else do we know for sure? Why would Obama claim to have ordered a kill on Osama, and then dispose of his body at sea? Does that sound like the American way of justice?
Dr. David Ray Griffin published “Osama bin Laden Dead or Alive” in 2009. It's a good read today! Evidence of fraud is abundant. The questions he raises need to be answered. http://noliesradio.org/archives/3230
The Corporate media spin machine has cranked out an avalanche of "reports" on the "daring" execution of a supposedly-alive Osama bin Laden hiding in a “million dollar mansion” in Pakistan. The story of the amazing commando raid may end up being another high-tech production from the same folks who brought us the lies about Pat Tillman, Jessica Lynch, & WMD in Iraq. In the case of Pat Tillman, the "official glory story" was that he got killed in a shoot out with the Taliban. Later, as the Tillman family bravely pressed on and on for the truth, the story was amended to be "friendly fire". Then the military coroner report revealed that the evidence showed that Pat Tillman was shot "by 3 bullets to the forehead at 10 yards range". Ignored AP story:
In the case of Jessica Lynch, she refused to go along with the "official glory story". She testified to Congress that she was wounded by an explosion, not in a firefight. Iraqi hospital authorities informed the US military that she was alive and well and under their care. But the Pentagon sent a commando unit in there to "rescue the heroic soldier". Was the truth less important than having a recruitment poster boy and girl to use to lie to young people about corporate resource & domination wars?
In the aftermath of 9/11, we were all in "shock & awe" as the media reported “explosions” at the WTC (World Trade Center) and the Pentagon. This was rapidly revised to the "official story" that the jet fuel from the planes that hit the two tallest towers of the WTC complex "melted the steel" and caused their collapse. It's against the laws of physics! Both Dan Rather and Peter Jennings mused aloud as it was happening that the only way that steel frame buildings could be brought down by fire would be to "get at the inner structures" as in a "demolition". What's worse, the WTC buildings did not just collapse. They disintegrated to dust in 10 seconds! Building 7, which was not hit by a plane, did so in 7 seconds at around 5:30 that evening. In fact, on Sept 10, 2001 Dan Rather reported on CBS that Osama bin Laden was in a Pakistani military hospital getting dialysis treatments for kidney failure.

In spite
of the lack of any evidence to prove that bin Laden was the man whose
body was killed in Pakistan and dumped into the ocean, we are simply
being intellectually bullied by authority to accept their story as
true. We have a media so consolidated and conscripted into service to
the secret security state that they just repeat what they are told to us
so that they can keep their jobs. No wonder people call them
“presstitutes” doing fake journalism for money.
Now we
have a new Hollywood movie called "Zero Dark Thirty" that was done in
secret complicity with the CIA and the Orwellian-named fascist
sounding Homeland Security apparatus to deliver a movie that falsely claims that torture works and was necessary. The 9/11 Commission had no access to CIA prisoners but they accepted and used confessions wrought through torture as if they were reliable evidence gained from good detective work. The National Defense
Authorization Act (NDAA) not only authorized 622 billion dollars for
the Pentagon, the bill passed the U.S. House on Dec. 14, 2011, the
U.S. Senate on Dec. 15, 2011, and was signed into United States law
on December 31, 2011 by President Barack Obama while most Americans
were celebrating the New Year and he signed similar repressive
legislation on New Year's Eve 2012 as well. These NDAA bills include
a clause that legalizes the dissemination of propaganda to US
citizens. With executive claims to the power to indefinitely detain
and disappear anyone it deems a “suspect” without judicial due
process as the Constitution clearly requires, we have treasonous
criminal and immoral conduct declared acceptable.
Those
who question the 9/11 story and the rewarding of those who failed to
defend us on that day, what hit the Pentagon or how that could even
happen after the New York attacks, why and how three World Trade
Center buildings could disintegrate to toxic dusk and rubble in 10
seconds, the WMD lies about Iraq, the lack of accountability for
torture and murder in secret prisons, the prosecution and punishment
of whistle-blowers instead of the criminals they expose, the
incredibly lethal firepower unleashed on Libya without Congressional
authorization, and the need for evidence and transparency about major
events and policies to have an informed electorate and a functioning
democracy, the challenge is frightening and intimidating. But as any
American who has taken an oath “to honor and defend the
Constitution of the United States against all enemies both foreign
and domestic” will tell you, it does not have to continue to go
down this way. The US does not have to descend into a fascist police
state or global corporate empire. We have a right to question and we
will continue to do so.
Movies like "Zero Dark Thirty" turn our political culture into a stinking cesspool. The reader is
referred to this excellent critique in Global Research on 2-25-13 by
London-based writer Patrick Henningsen,“Hollywood History: CIA Sponsored “Zero Dark Thirty”, Oscar for “Best Propaganda Picture”. Henningsen asks, “Was bin Laden really
killed by Seal Team 6 that day? Examine the evidence, if you can find
any.” In mock sympathy, Henningsen says, “I felt sorry for the
director, the cast and all the production crew who put in their hard
work and sweat, and probably believed that bin Laden was indeed in
the Abbotabad compound in May 2011, and that they were reenacting a
rare and proud piece of American history. In order to believe this,
they would also would have to have believed that somehow, that same
bin Laden also masterminded a multi-pronged assault that managed to
bypass the whole of the US Defense apparatus – all from his
legendary cave in Tora Bora. It’s no surprise how much both the
Bush and Obama governments and the corporate military industrial
complex has benefited from maintaining the mythology of a living
Osama bin Laden since 2001. Unfortunately, the mythology does not
measure up to reality, with multiple admissions in public by heads of
state, by Pervez Musharraf, and Benazir Bhutto, as well as by Madeline
Albright and others, and even mainstream media reports going all the
way back to 2001, stating that Osama bin Laden was dying, or had in
fact died in late 2001. Knowing all this, when I heard the news of
Obama and the Navy Seal Team 6 raid on bin Laden, I knew immediately
that not only was this almost certainly a fiction, but that there would be no photographs and videos released, because a dead man
cannot come back to life after 10 years for a photo session. As
predicted, a few days later the White House confirmed my suspicions,
announcing that indeed, ‘no photos or video will be released’…
On top of that, we were also told that they dumped bin Laden’s body
at sea 48 hours after allegedly killing him. Fancy that? But even
that pillar of the official story fell apart later when it was revealed
that no US sailors aboard the USS Carl Vinson ever saw the alleged
burial at sea, and that no images exist in any government records of
bin Laden aboard the decorated US sea vessel.”
With
all of this heavy information, I would recommend a good laugh at it
all as well. This Joy Camp Channel video spoof at YouTube is just
what the doctor ordered!
“Best Propaganda Film (OSCAR 2013 SPOILER!LEAKED CLIP!!)” Editor's Note #2 of 3 posted 5-18-15: My apologies to you, dear reader, since Joy Camp has removed this particular skit from their YouTube Channel. I do not know why Joy Camp pulled this wonderful spoof on the CIA winning the oscar for "Zero Dark Thirty". I do not know if Joy Camp was threatened, or if it was just a decision to play it safe as a Hollywood career move. I still recommend their YouTube stuff. It's hilarious and usually does raise the intelligent and relevant quesions. I am leaving the link as is. But knowing our need for comic relief, we will post another funny video below.

Kevin Ryan, who worked for the company, Underwriters Laboratories Inc, that certified the steel in the WTC, lost his job when he raised questions about the government's NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) report that claimed there were no explosions (irregardless of what thousands of witnesses, fire and rescue workers, and independent scientists said), and that office fires for the first time in history brought down steel-frame buildings. He worked with a team of scientists associated with “Scholars for 9/11 Truth” to examine dust from the WTC. They published a scientific “peer review” paper that was completely ignored by the corporate media because it showed photos of microscopic particles that indicate that "nano thermate" was used in the demolition.
Thermite is used in industrial demolitions. Adding sulfur makes it Thermate, which can melt steel. But only the US and some allied militaries would have access to "nano thermate". If you are asking yourself how "Muslim terrorists" could get access to the 3 WTC buildings to destroy them by demolition, that is a legitimate question. It also leads to the possibility that others would more likely have such access. Kevin Ryan recently wrote an article on the question of access to the WTC.

Bush and Cheney resisted having a Commission set up to investigate the events of 9/11 for almost two years. Only when victim family members, particularly a group known as "The Jersey Girls", pressed on for the truth, did they create a commission. Bush named National Security Director Condoleezza Rice's assistant, Philip Zelikow, to be Executive Director. A cover-up was predictable. Watch the movie about “The Jersey Girls”, "9/11: Press for Truth", & discuss it with friends & family: http://youtu.be/iMT2CHSvyGw
David Ray Griffin spent most of his life as a professor of theology. But once he began to investigate 9/11 he produced many good books on the subject and he has spoken all over the world about it. The "official story" was very useful propaganda in support of wars and repressive laws, which violate the Constitution. They are bad for Americans and even worse for the corporate empire's victims. This"Guns & Butter interview with Dr. David Ray Griffin: Osama Bin Laden Dead of Alive?"by Bonnie Faulkner on KPFA about his book "Osama Bin Laden Dead of Alive" was originally broadcast in 2009. It was especially timely to re-broadcast this on May 2, 2011, a day after President Obama made a speech stating that he ordered a special ops unit into Pakistan to execute Osama bin Laden and to dump the body into the ocean. The President claimed he gave the order to dump the body of Osama bin Laden into the ocean out of respect for Muslim practice. Is such an act not closer to Mafia practice than Muslim practice? It certainly makes it impossible to verify that bin Laden was the one killed and that that was his body that they dumped at sea! DNA could have beenacquired long ago during one of bin Laden's hospital visits for kidney failure.
Updates: SECRET MOVE KEEPS BIN LADEN RECORDS IN THE SHADOWS BY RICHARD LARDNER ASSOCIATED PRESS 7-8-13 “WASHINGTON (AP) -- The top U.S. special
operations commander, Adm. William McRaven, ordered military files
about the Navy SEAL raid on Osama bin Laden's hideout to be purged
from Defense Department computers and sent to the CIA, where they
could be more easily shielded from ever being made public. The secret
move, described briefly in a draft report by the Pentagon's inspector
general, set off no alarms within the Obama administration even
though it appears to have sidestepped federal rules and perhaps also
the U.S. Freedom of Information Act. An acknowledgement by Adm.
William McRaven of his actions was quietly removed from the final
version of an inspector general's report published weeks ago. A
spokesman for the admiral declined to comment. The CIA, noting that
the bin Laden mission was overseen by then-CIA Director Leon Panetta
before he became defense secretary, said that the SEALs were
effectively assigned to work temporarily for the CIA, which has
presidential authority to conduct covert operations.”
